The Iraq match was never confirmed to be cancelled. It was a stupid online rumor with no basis in reality.

True but I hope Singapore match get confirmed we need a good match

Well even adel mentioned it in Navad, so it was more than online rumor.

If we win against Syria, we will probably climb another 4-5 spots in the FIFA ranking.

According to media reports, the friendly against Iraq has been rejected by the Iraqi coach.

[GolfePersique]

The match got cancelled because Iraqis wanted to play in UAE,but IFF wanted to play it in Tehran.

It was expected, as Iran-UAE relations are not at its best, also it is an unnecessary journey for our players.

[GolfePersique]

Here's official IFF statement saying since there was no contract between the two sides and there wasn't anything official, it can't be called a cancellation.

According to Arab media, the disagreement was over the venue.

[Kiarash]

If we win against Syria, we will probably climb another 4-5 spots in the FIFA ranking.

We're now 27th best team of the world.

[ehsan singapore]

good, so are you going to play singapore?

[mahestan]

Cancelled or not, I am glad there is no friendly with Iraq. Last we need is to have some of our players get banged up because of the hostility the Iraqi team/nation/whatever has toward Iranians.

Mashad seems like a great city, I hope I can visit it one day. Haven't seen much of Iran outside of Tehran.

Lol I'm the opposite of you brother. Mashhads the only city in Iran I've visited (except for kish but idk if that counts). Hope to visit Tehran, Esfahan, and Shiraz soon.
